National Leadership Day is observed on February 20 each year. The aim of National Leadership Day is to inculcate the values of leadership in each one of us. If we all took up responsibilities and led in our communities, the world would be a much better place. 🤩 A good leader not only leads but inspires those around him to be the best versions of themselves. If you step up during hard times and lend an empathetic ear, you can change someone’s life. Anyone can be a leader you just have to show up and encourage others to do the same. 💪 #pentabell #Leadership #communities

Did you know your environment can significantly influence feelings of imposter syndrome? Up to 82% of people experience these feelings at some point in their careers*. Thanks to Tulsi van de Graaff for an insightful session with the Women’s Leadership Network on this topic. Here are my top takeaways for leaders: 1. Lead with empathy and vulnerability Share your own struggles and practice self-compassion. By being genuinely supportive and actively listening, you set a powerful example for others. 2. Cultivate an inclusive culture focussed on feedback Regular, constructive feedback should be actively sought and prioritised. This practice creates a genuine sense of belonging and helps people recognise their strengths and areas for growth. *Insights from the IPAA NSW Women’s Leadership Network session. #leadership #professionaldevelopment #womeninleadership #culture

Once again, María Victoria Zapata Guerrero, the GM of HRTools, delivers a home run. Her keen insight into the impact of leadership arrogance in a VUCA World, where it can obscure destructive behaviors, is truly noteworthy. Her six recommendations for fostering leadership development couldn't be more crucial. On another note, it's concerning to see the trends among Mexican leaders highlighted in this report, showing a fourfold propensity to abuse their strengths in terms of boldness compared to the global average (52% vs. 13%). #LivingInAVUCAWorld #HRTools #ThePriceOfArrogance
